We have about 4" of dense snow here. Hard to tell for sure as the wind has blown it around quite a bit. We've already had more run off this spring than the past two years so I think the ground will be saturated by the time this is done.
I have 135 calves on the ground now. I really hope it stays froze up for a week.
I've calved my cows from January to May/June and am back to the middle of February. Calving during 2 weeks of cold, wet, muddy weather in May while also trying to get the crop in isn't a lot of fun either.
